SU Students Brave the Cold in Boeheimburg

Beginning Sunday night the students of Syracuse University took to "Boeheimburg" named after SU mens basketball coach Jim Boeheim to wait in line for a basketball game. The Syracuse vs. Duke game however, was 12 days at the time. Students have braved the cold that got down to single digits before the students in charge of "Ottos Army" told everyone to go home and sleep in their beds for the night. As the deep freeze continued students would arrive on line at 9am and were told to leave at 9pm. After the temperatures warm up to a balmy 14 degrees on Friday night the students will be allowed to sleep outside again to brave another week in the elements before the big game.
